What about Medicine?? If I complete a 6-yrs Medical program in Poland, would I be able to practice in Canada?
Another question: Do I have to do residency in Canada to practice here? If I do residency in USA, would I be able to practice in Canada???
If the answer is yes, could you please suggest some good medical universities in Poland?? I've heard Lodz or Poznan is quite famous here...
PLEASE DO HELP!!!
Thanks

If you do dental school in Poland and then come back to Canada or the U.S. there is a program that you would have to apply to and do the last 2 years over again to get your license.
After 6 years of medical school, you would qualify to obtain a license in all 50 states after 2 or 3 years of post graduate training. However, if you do the 4 year english program in Poland or other European countries, then some states and provinces will not grant you a license. The only schools with a 4 year english program that are approved in all 50 states are located in Hungary and the Czech Republic. You can practice in Canada following a residency in the Us provided you pass all the exams but some specialties are 4 years in US vs 5 years in Canada
The english program in Poznan has been around the longest so they probably have all the kinks worked out. However, Cracow and Warsaw might be just as good possibly with better resources and equipment
